According to my T I sat there for almost 5 mins lost in thought..

I said ... I’m done, I honestly don’t care if I sleep or not. Eventually my body will override my mind and I will sleep.

Well that was a turning point with my relationship to sleep.

Sure I’d like to sleep great nightly but it’s just not something I do

The only time I really need to sit up and pay attention is if I go 4-5 days of no sleep or single digits or hours, otherwise I just ride the wave.

Sometime when we stop bashing our heads into a brick wall sleep just will happen

Hope you find a solution
Thanks, Christina, I really appreciate your thoughts. You're probably right. I need to detach from this. It will be exactly and perfectly whatever it is intended to be. And I will just have to do that. I am generally quite accepting of life's difficulties, but sleep has always been avery touchy subject for me. I just need to let go. Thanks for that.
